Life was meant to be eclectic

What is eclecticism?

     -using what are considered the best elements of all systems.
     -selecting what seems best from various styles, doctrines, ideas, methods, etc
     -to select
     -to gather

If you're not gathering information, advice, and help from more than one source, you are drastically limiting yourself.  Look at the book of wisdom. 


Proverbs 15:22
     Plans go wrong for lack of advice;
      many advisers bring success.

Proverbs 24:6
     So don’t go to war without wise guidance;
      victory depends on having many advisers.

Proverbs 11:14
     Without wise leadership, a nation falls;
      there is safety in having many advisers.




     So now we have our mission statement.  Seek many advisers.  Gather.  That is wisdom.  If you like what the president of the United States says, or what I say, or what Brad Pitt says- awesome.  Don't, however, go banking your whole life on that one opinion. 
     That is why good debaters always quote as many sources as possible, that's why scientists can't draw a conclusions about the universe from one test, why Democracies change their leaders, and that's why you can't afford to bank everything one what one person says.
      This blog is about a persuit of knowledge, a persuit of good deals, a persuit of companies and people who establish credibility, it's a persuit of a life happening on purpose.
